Social inequality is a universal social problem with several manifestations. In every society or country, some people have a great share of resources such as capital, education, property, health, and power over others. Economic, cultural, and social capital are three types of capital used to classify these resources. Social inequality is when the resources in a society are distributed unevenly along the lines of socially salient categories of people. It emerges when these resources are allocated unevenly in any society. Therefore, unequal access to social resources is called social inequality. The present research paper aims to analyse the level and causes of social inequality and social fragmentation in Moradabad city, and to identify the causes, consequences, and level of social inequality among respondents, and suggest some solutions to the problems. The present study is based on both primary and secondary sources of data. Various statistical and analytical methods and techniques are used to analyse data. The present study reveals a significant inequality among various social groups in the area of education, employment, income, and political representation and participation. The education, employment, and income levels are comparatively low among marginalized populations in the study area, and they face problems of social inequality and stratification.
